At our Christmas meeting, Orpington met the Croydon Astronomical Society in a head-to-head quiz hosted by BBC Blue Peter Astronomer, Anton Vamplew. Both teams were asked for the their team-names. Croydon, all dressed the same in black – were the “All Blacks”. Orpington had decided on a more prophetic name of “Clueless”, and wore pixie-hats…
The teams put on a great show through expertise and mental dexterity. However by the half way point it was clear that Orpington was no match for the wits of Croydon. When all said and done both teams played excellently and fun was had by all. Croydon have also expressed an interest in a return match!
